HI,everybody as the name suggest yes am talking bout an event ..we all know there are a lack of RC event happening in India most of them are very small scale and are not totally about rc like tech fests and stuff there is just one major international  event happening in India that is the Ambby valley event .... 

Well summer vacations are approaching and that means vacations for a few while some still will be working but it frees up 50% of people mostly students already in this hobby ... the members working would be free on saturdays and sundays

For example many people in an around mumbai fly locally in small groups excluding members in mahalaxmi where there are many people ....the point is people being so close never meet up ....

I know organizing an event takes time effort but to have fun flies is a must to get in new crowed into the hobby existing members get to meet ....people who are unaware of such things and interested can get help from existing members ....forum moderators and seniors and all members hope u guys agree we can have something like this in april may ...moms in media i can try and get a post bout this this in news papers ...plus there is facebook for adds and dont forget word of mouth sharing  i guess if we agree on such an event members can arrange to get there .....LHS can also have their share of participation !!!!

what do u guys think ?

+1 !!
This hobby needs to get more publicity. The Chinese have made this hobby quite affordable, even to college students like me. We just need to get the word out

Superb idea!!!

more people have to agree then it will only be location location location !!!!!

this can be only possible with everyones contribution in the smallest or biggest way ....anwar sir gusty sir need your views.... every bodies views required ....

do let me know if people are willing to participate

gusty sir it would kinda be too far for some since most of us are just students ...somewhere around central india would be fine for all i guess gives us three or more options MUMBAI NAGPUR HYDERABAD ....These locations specially NAGPUR would be ideal where it will be exactly or lil more than 1000km from any destination in India ....shillong is 2000km+ from the west and more than 2700km from south i dont think these guys will come up so far ....the whole point of rc india funfly would be to get most of the members and get newbees at one place to enjoy an event together ....i dont mind as long as other members dont mind shillong .....but central india most preferred since it would be cheaper for all to come to .... 

Yeah , I'm a newbie and shillong is kind of far. But the idea of getting of the heat is good :p would be a fun trip, but then it wont be okay with everyone,  like me, all students, it might be costly as I dont know exactly how much it would cost to get there and the stay. But for now see somewhere close and convenient for everyone.

The only time I can personally take lead on this is typically in July/August, preferably in God's Own Country. 

I don't want to see such meets labeled as "RC India whatever", and our beloved nation being as vast as it is, we will need a few in various parts.  Wings India was a monumental effort (kudos to them!), but we should be able to arrange smaller scale ones also, without as much effort.

God's own country is fine too again it becomes a distance to travel for the northerners... Let see Sir where people prefer...

please put in your votes to where it will be possible for u guys to come

There used to be a club couple of decades ago, whatever happened to that 

Am not sure bout the club sir ......And people please keep voting we need a location 

@Shannon, pls include bangalore also... 

Making it centralized so most people can travel too !!!!

Shannon

i see Shillong a close second, wherever it is, i pledge my full support

on a lighter note

Could you please change Karela

to

Kerala



in your poll

haha! karela! but i am wondering, if held in mumbai, where will it be held there? can you also add Goa to the list???
we have a nice island-ish place to fly!

oh am sorry was entering that from my phone damn autocorrect 

ya dude even i was thinking bout it but things get expensive there

Actually Goa wont be that expensive. Can actually rent a farm house, so split the rent, and travel is also convenient :p

yes i do know that but i doubt it will be favorable to all besides ,mumbai ,bangalore ,kerala people .finding a place to fly will be a challenge 

Goa will be windy too, well, most of the time. since i lived near sea, land and sea breeze keeps switching through out the day,even when there is not bad weather approaching.

Shannon
Though i am game for it

Yes there is calm weather in morning and late afternoons..... U are a pilot too Sir n I like my birds bumping around and challenging mother nature even while flying in real life.. It would be fun
